Leaving loved ones is never easy, very well written and from the heart.10+ regards Tom
It is so nice of you to talk about your dear angels.... Thanks for inviting me to read your poems! ! !
Such a tug of heart poem & well expreseed. I have poems about my angels I am not ready to post yet. Although they are all grown up now, it's still heartwrenching every time we say goodbye. I feel for you Joan. I really hope your situation can change so that you don't have to keep going through this. Lots of luv & hugs, T

It is so hard to leave our children. I think you hit on one of the more painful time in motherhood and that is seperation. It is a very good read.
Honestly written emotion of a mother's parting grief. It is always such a sad time and you brought out that poignancy very well Joan.
There is no love easy to leave standing in an airport, least of all a child's love.
a love seeking query unanswered by words... but answered sincerely by mind...good write, joan... i give you ten
